Approaches that guide online work and progress

Two evidence-based approaches often shape her work: brief skills-based interventions that teach coping techniques for anxiety and depression, and trauma-informed methods that help people process past harm and reduce its hold on daily life. The first focuses on learning concrete skills to manage mood and stress. The second helps people make sense of traumatic experiences and build safety in relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to identify goals and tries methods that fit their needs and pace. This means adjusting strategies over time and checking in about what is or isn’t working.
